River of Spring

Great Smoky Mountains National Park

A vibrant canopy of new leaves glows with electric green as spring awakens the forest. Beneath the tender foliage, a lively mountain stream tumbles over mossy stones, weaving sound and motion into the stillness of the woods. This is the Smokies in their purest form—alive, untamed, and endlessly renewing. Photo © copyright by Joseph Rossbach.
